I moved to Thailand a year ago and Lazada is my first option for buying things. Sometimes you get what you want and sometimes you don't. But, I like the prices and fast delivery. However, many things delivered from China and takes a couple of weeks. I order a case for my IPad Pro 12.9 inch and had delivered something for a smaller IPad that was really nice and had never seen before. The BF loved it and kept for his IPad. But, we were lucky on that one. Sometimes size is not shown and I ordered some wash clothes that I thought I'd like. They were cool but only 2 inches wide. LOL The details are in the fine print and if not find print be ware! Koko, yes, I'd have to have extra room in there for sure. But, on United, Delta and American I have a press pass which gives me up to 20 bags at 50 USD each and up to 100 pound per bag. It is much cheaper than other things.

I love cooking but as a Southern guy, I grew up with cast iron and love using it to cook. The BF also loves it and we use it almost every day. Yesterday, we went to Emporium for lunch. We saw they had a section for Lodge cookware which was pretty high. The BF fell in love with a Lodge stove. It was 26,000 baht. I almost bought it for him but decided to wait and see what we found online. I got home and checked the price on Amazon and it is less than 100 USD. So, it is going to have to wait. In another thread, we talked about shopping in Thailand and this is one of those instances that it is best to buy and bring into country. https://www.amazon.com/Lodge-L410-Pre-Seasoned-Sportsmans-Charcoal/dp/B00022OK2A

Well, almost. it is not being called a marriage but a union. Knowing so many poly-amorous couples, I think this is a good idea. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/jul/03/colombia-three-men-union-alejandro-rodriguez-manuel-bermudez-victor-hugo-prada

They just looked like they were having fun. Isn't that the point of sports?

I think that all depends on what you are looking for. I like Cargo shorts and get them here for 200 baht each. To me, much cheaper than anything I can find in USA. If you are looking for tailored clothes, it is not cheap. But, the place I use Tailor on Ten is amazing and the quality is excellent. Some things are going to be much more expensive in Thailand like name brands. But, using the Thai brand will save you money. It all depends on what you want, where you go and often if you have a Thai friend with you that goes back and gets it for you.

Samebb, there are some great places to see in Sunnee. I loved just finding a beer bar and watching the street traffic go by. It was always lively and fun. I have not been in years. But, I know you will have fun. Enjoy Pattaya and Sunnee!

I have been really swamped the past few weeks and just found this thread in all its glory. It was so refreshing to read and with great detail and information. Thank you for sharing it with us and I am looking forward to your next trip!

400 per year? That is insane! Thank you for the new links to FH reports. I know you enjoy his stories as much as many of us. He is certainly nice to go back and do all the photo adding. A great deal of work on his part.

Here is a before and after of one of my favorite guys in Brazil. About 10 years or so apart.

I guess we saw different photos. They all aged and with aging often comes some fat but none I saw were fat. If that is what you saw, you must have been looking for something different than I was.

Sad and crazy events in the first story. It seems like a lot of drama in the article itself. Sad to loose the life of someone so young.

He is fine. I spoke to him a week or so ago.

A true asshole statement. As are many others in this thread. I am not sure why some cant keep on topic. But, further attempts to bitch fight with each other in this thread will be deleted. I have been to Brazil over 30 times and loved each one. But, I can't speak the language. I can get by in the saunas just fine with a few words. That said, I usually hire a guide to be with me the whole time as it makes my trip easier and negotiations smooth. I don't think you need to speak the language of the place you visit. I have been to 80 countries and most I don't speak the language. But, I do respect the people, their language and I do try to speak the words I learn. Not hard to learn a few works everywhere you travel. For example, activio, passivo, total? Quantos Real? Mucho besos? Even if my pronunciation is wrong, most know what I mean.

So glad you had fun and enjoyed it. I agree with your assessment. It is one of those cities I love in Brazil.

I have not heard of that! Thanks for sharing. Just the thought gets me excited!

New seasons for So you Think you can Dance and World of Dance are now live in the summer. I love them both. I have watched So you Think You can Dance for Years and with the exception of the season with the little kids, I loved them all. Jennifer Lopez is doing World of Dance and it is on another level and some amazing dance performances. Give it a shot if you have not seen them!

It has been MANY years since I was there but these new rates seem marvelous!

I also liked the sauna in BH. It was very clean and nice. The owners had spent some money on it. I also found the online dating apps were filled with sexy money boys from BH.

This is one of the best written articles I have read. http://lithub.com/rebecca-solnit-the-loneliness-of-donald-trump/

Many browsers are not giving a warning when the site has http instead of https. Most sites are still only http but they are encouraging all sites to be https just to make a bit more secure.

Taiwan will be first country in Asia to legalize gay marriage! YES!!! http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-40012047

And, Indonesia is considering making homosexuality illegal. IMHO, as a gay community, we have a few steps forward and then a few steps back. Sad.

Beauty is such a subjective thing and everyone's idea of beauty is going to be different. There are things that I like on guys (tattoos and lots of them) really turn off a lot of people. I was in Rio a few years back and at Meio Mundo and there was this guy trying to pick me up. I didn't like his face too much. He was not ugly but just average and his body was firm. But, another poster here, I forgot his name, (Tom, the guy that lives in Rio) and he told me the guy was amazing in bed. So, I took him for a programma. Literally, one of the best sex escapades I had in Rio. the guy ate ass like I have never seen and I never (rarely) get fucked but wanted this guy who prepared me with his tongue. It was a great time for me. Yet, I never would have gone with him had someone not recommended him to me. Realize that not all have the same type and photos are often misleading and that part of the sex desire comes from the aura that one exhibits. When people post photos, we should be thankful and tell them thanks. We don't need the bullshit, well, he is not my type. If that is the case, keep your fucking opinion to yourself and go to another thread. No need to derail any thread. IMHO
